Painted live, 9/10/'11, at "The Sound of Love" in Cornelius, NC. It was part of a silent auction and went to a happy home here in Cornelius, NC. I found the file earlier and realized I never posted it for my fellow deviants. Time passes, and I find myself spending less and less time on dA, but still- you all have done more than any of you can know to encourage and support my continued growth. Thank you to every one who has taken time to peruse, comment, critique, or inspire.
Thanks- it's quite a feeling when something approaching beauty seems to arise spontaneously, as this piece reportedly did. I had 0 expectations or direction 30 seconds before starting.
